Chapter 639 NPC
Jiang He and Long Aotian left first.
No sooner had the two left than Kong Ji and Wan Qi Ziye found themselves facing each other.
"Kongji, we're from the same university, so don't get physical. If you do, I'm going to start playing the piano."
Li Songcheng shouted loudly, mimicking Zhong Liyu's loud voice to an almost perfect degree.
"He won't make a move."
"I won't do anything."
Wanqi Ziye and Kongji spoke one after the other.
Li Songcheng stared at the two of them with wide eyes. How come Wan Qiziye hadn't contacted Kong Ji in such a short time? It seemed like the two of them had already planned it.
Kongji took a small step forward:
"The clues are false; she must have escaped during this gap."
Wanqi Ziye took the note from Kong Ji's hand:
"earth?"
The character for "earth" was written in Chinese characters above.
Wanqi Ziye recognized him and made an awkward sound.
Chinese is still so difficult to pronounce.
Wanqi Ziye didn't know how Kongji made that judgment, but he was more inclined to believe that Hongmu was trying to shake them off. After all, in such a short time, the person had already disappeared and they couldn't catch up even if they chased after him.
"Holy crap, so that means Hongmu tricked both of our sects, giving you a false clue to stall us. Logically, this clue should be half true and half false, so how can you be so sure it's fake?"
"prophecy."
The emptiness is simple yet terrifying.
Li Songcheng immediately understood.
The study of emptiness and tranquility is Buddhist practice. If we really talk about the major categories, it can also be included in the category of Dharma practice. However, Buddhist practice, which stands alone, involves other knowledge.
For example, divination or astrology.
This technique for prying into the secrets of heaven was extremely mysterious, and Li Songcheng did not ask any further questions.
As long as Kongji doesn't become their enemy, the situation is considered good.
Li Songcheng looked at the long-unseen emptiness, and then at Wanqi Ziye.
That thread in my heart has never been pulled out:
"Why did you go to the Blood Alliance?"
"We have different paths."
Kongji didn't say much, but turned and left.
"Endless waters, join forces to seize the clues."
"Okay, take a look once we get the clues."
Wanqi Ziye and Kongji confirmed their relationship.
The sudden collaboration between the two left Li Songcheng, an insider, somewhat bewildered. Since Kong Ji joined the Blood Alliance, their relationship had become quite distant.
He hadn't expected Kong Ji to discuss cooperation with them.
Kong Ji maintained a certain distance from Wan Qi Zi Ye's group while leading the cultivators, but their purpose was the same.
Many members of the Lingyun Sect came from the Lingqing Academy and were aware of the connection between Kongji and Wanqi Ziye. However, in recent years, the two had drifted apart, and many cultivators thought that Kongji and Wanqi Ziye had completely broken up.
Some cultivators who were watching the Lingyun Sect's live stream looked enlightened.
Kong Ji and Wan Qi Zi Ye both graduated from our Lingqing Academy. Kong Ji, Wan Qi Zi Ye, and Li Song Cheng were often seen standing side-by-side. During the previous academy competition, our academy performed poorly. After that, starting from a certain point, Kong Ji began to keep to himself, while Wan Qi Zi Ye continued to be with Li Song Cheng. Strangely enough, for some unknown reason, the two suddenly had a falling out.
Kongji seems to have some connection with Hongmu. Back in the Science and Technology City, Kongji acted very familiar with Hongmu; I thought he would collaborate with Hongmu this time.
This has little to do with whether you're familiar with each other or not. Even if you're brothers and assigned to different sects in the sect competition, you'll still fight for the honor of your respective sects.
That's true, but Hongmu is really dishonest. He agreed to get the clues from Kongji, but then secretly forged a new one.
If I were Hongmu, I would do the same. Hongmu's cultivation level seems stronger than both Kongji and Wanqi Ziye. Shaking off from both teams would be easy; all it would take is a trigger. The clues were hard-won; it would be too much of a loss to give them up so easily.
There's another point I don't understand: Kongji had already deduced the location using divination, so why did he still accept the note handed to him by Hongmu?
I think Kongji is probably trying to create a false impression of neutrality. Aren't the Blood Alliance and Lingyun Sect cooperating directly now?
It's strange, but the Lingyun Sect and the Blood Alliance have always been at odds, yet they've actually cooperated in this competition.
It's nothing, it's all for profit.
The Free and Unfettered Sect is in a sorry state. Not content with attracting one enemy, they've attracted another. Speaking of which, I wonder if the Divine Cult will also come to this Endless Waters. I remember Pei Ci also saw the contents of the note above.
There's no smoke without fire; this level of skill will never be able to calm things down.
It's lively, truly lively; it would be complete if only the Hehuan Sect were missing.
Jiang He didn't think about the aftermath of Kong Ji and Wan Qi Zi Ye. When she arrived at the Endless Waters, Zhong Li Yu and Bai Zhi Zhou were already waiting by the water with sect cultivators and some weapon cultivators who were following Jin Da Zhu.
Under the scorching sun, Zhong Liyu looked at the old man who had appeared out of nowhere and couldn't help but strike up a conversation:
"You mean you'll take us across the river?"
"It's about crossing the river."
"Crossing the river is no different from crossing it; I'm just worried about whether your little boat can handle it."
“I can withstand it. I’ve lived here for over a hundred years, and I know this wind and wave very well.”
Zhong Liyu used a fan to blow away the hot air, but another gust of hot air moved over.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Hey, I didn't say you didn't know, but honestly, your sudden appearance always gave me a bit of a creepy feeling."
"The ferryman can ferry those who are destined to cross."
“I’ve heard that before. Say something else.”
"The ferryman can ferry those who are destined to cross."
Zhong Liyu: "Hey, only specific sentence structures can trigger the dialogue? Interesting, interesting."
"The ferryman can ferry those who are destined to cross."
The old man repeated a few sentences, and upon closer inspection, his movements were monotonous, with no further action taken.
Upon seeing Jiang He, Zhong Liyu beckoned her and Long Aotian to the water's edge before they could even exchange pleasantries.
"Redwood, it's really amazing. In this hot weather, there are no NPCs in the sect competition. I think it's quite interesting. It's just that sometimes the commands are mechanical and they only say a few sentences."
Zhong Liyu spoke, making the strange scene before him seem natural.
"NPC?" Long Aotian was puzzled.
"Yes, this old man appeared suddenly. He will only respond if you say something that can be triggered by his pre-language system. Wouldn't he be a perfect NPC in a game?"
Jiang He glanced at the old man several times.
It's definitely a real person, but the sentences they spoke were a bit mechanical.
She guessed that they might be staff members for the upcoming sect competition.
As Zhong Liyu said, it's about playing the role of an NPC.
